That looks like it finished.  But if you have another copy of 7zip open, it might be confusing BWS into thinking the task is still in progress.

Hey.

 

Just got it working now. Had a few old copies of BWP sitting around so I zipped them up and then deleted any loose files, moved BWP into a separate external drive, restarted the PC to kill any stuck processes and now it's extracting correctly.

 

Very much appreciate the help and quick responses. One of the many reasons why I love BG is the awesome community that keeps this (in my opinion) best game I've played going strong so many years later :)

Do you perhaps have other programs open? It is waiting for an exe to close.

It looks like 7-zip isn't automatically closing after the extract happens I think.
 

Spoiler

 
When I try to close 7zip in task manager I just get an 'access is denied' message as well

Did you disable the Windows feature called User Account Control?

Yessum. Never use it anyway. It's one of the first things I switch off on a new PC. Too annoying lol

Hi there team.
 
Had the urge to dive back into Baldur's Gate and have updated to the latest version of your awesome program.
 
I am having an issue which I'm presuming it completely my fault that I'm hoping to get some help with.
 
Firstly: Running Windows 10 64bit. BG1 & BG2 GOG versions with games started and random saves created.
 
Installing to an independant installation located in F: (not program files).
 
I can download and start the installation process without issue but when it gets up to "F:\Users\shaun_000\Downloads\BG2 Big World Project\BigWorldSetup-bigworldsetup2016NEW\BigWorldSetup-bigworldsetup-272ecadb5f35\BiG World Setup>"
the process (12_Process.au3 Line 328: Sleep(750)
 
it stays there and does not continue on with the installation.
 
I have tried right clicking on the tray icon and clicking on the 'script paused' icon (which has a tick) but this doesn't get it moving again. No error messages etc. It just stays there and wont continue.

(PS at the top it says it is "Extracting Baldur's Gate Trilogy (16.4 MB)
 
Any words of wisdom for me would be greatly appreciated :)
 
Thank

In Topic: BWP v15

Hi All.

 

I am having an issue installing the 'recommended' BWP version from The Big World Setup program (latest version).

 

It downloads and installs everything fine (no errors come up at all that I see anyway) but when I go to start the game I get the following:

 

"-1"

 

"An Assertion failed in chDimm.cpp at line number 834"

 

It is a clean install copied to a independent installation not in the 'proper' program files on C:

 

Running Win10.

 

Any words of wisdom out there for me? I got the 'standard' version working fine but it was too much stuff for me to jump back into the game.

 

4th time reinstall with a clean backup and separate install location has got me into the game. YAY! Thanks for all your hard work in getting these programs going team :)

 

Thanks in advance.
